    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Loe, Jensen Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/4EC.2ACE/811 Message Board Post: I am seeking information, living descendants or obituaries for the following: Selmer Loe, born 12/31/1889-died 3/1978. Luella Jensen Loe, born 12/15/1894-died 11/1975. Both are buried at St. John's Evenagelical Lutheran Cemetery in or near Sparta. In 1920 Selmer and Luella were living in Tainter, Dunn County, Wis, but by 1930 they were in Sparta. They had 2 daughters, Mildred Loe (born about 1916) and J. Lorraine Loe (born about 1918). I suspect there were other children. I am working on the family of Luella Jensen. Her father was Bernt Jensen of Oppland Norway, who came to Wisconsin in the 1880's. Bernt was my great uncle. He married Petrine Larsdatter of Toten, Norway. Petrine died in Dane county in 1907 and Bernt took the children and moved to Tainter, Dunn County. Luella's siblings were Helmer Jensen (b 5/30/1893 Dane County), Oscar John Jensen (b 1/22/1899 Dane County), Theodore Ingvald Jensen (b 2/2/1902 Dane County) and Arthur Sanford Jensen (b 2/27/1905 Dane County. I found a couple of other Loes in Sparta in the Soc sec death index...may be related. C. Loe (1938-1993) & Harley Loe (1935-1999). There also were more Loes born in the 1920's who lived in Eau Claire. Any info on this family would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Jinger Mandt
